NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION

[Docket No. 50-400]


Carolina Power & Light Company; Notice of Issuance of Amendment 
To Facility Operating License

    The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (Commission) has issued 
Amendment No. to Facility Operating License No. NPF-63 issued to 
Carolina Power & Light Company (CP&L, the licensee), which revised the 
Operating License (OL) and Technical Specifications (TS) for operation 
of the Shearon Harris Nuclear Power Plant, Unit 1 (HNP), located in 
Wake and Chatham Counties, North Carolina. The amendment is effective 
as of the date of issuance.
    The amendment modified the OL and TS for HNP to reflect an increase 
in the licensed core power level to 2900 Megawatts (thermal), 4.5% 
greater than the current level.
    The application for the amendment complies with the standards and 
requirements of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended (the Act), 
and the Commission's rules and regulations. The Commission has made 
appropriate findings as required by the Act and the Commission's rules 
and regulations in 10 CFR Chapter I, which are set forth in the license 
amendment.
    Notice of Consideration of Issuance of Amendment to Facility 
Operating License and Opportunity for a Hearing in connection with this 
action was published in the Federal Register on February 6, 2001 (66 FR 
9110). No request for a hearing or petition for leave to intervene was 
filed following this notice.
    The Commission has prepared an Environmental Assessment related to 
the action and has determined not to prepare an environmental impact 
statement. Based upon the environmental assessment, the Commission has 
concluded that the issuance of the amendment will not have a 
significant effect on the quality of the human environment (66 FR 
51982).
    For further details with respect to the action see (1) the 
application for amendment dated December 14, 2000, and supplements
